Hyrum Gibbs Smith (July 8, 1879 – February 4, 1932) was Presiding Patriarch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) from 1912 until his death.

Smith was born in South Jordan, Salt Lake County, Utah Territory, to Hyrum Fisher Smith and Annie Maria Gibbs.

The younger Smith was recalled to Utah to succeed him in the full-time position.

[3] Days before his death, he called for his son, Eldred G. Smith, with the intention of ordaining him as his successor as Patriarch to the Church, but was dissuaded from doing so by his own wife, Martha, who optimistically convinced him he would live for many more years.

[1] Notably, such an ordination would have been out of harmony with the policy of the current president of the church, but apparently would have been consistent with the precedent set when Joseph Smith Sr. ordained Hyrum Smith as his successor to the patriarchate.
